2. SAFETY WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION
1. Never use the following HALOGENATED HYDROCARBON SOLVENTS:
which can cause cracks or dissolution of gun body (aluminium) due to
chemical reaction. UNSUITABLE SOLVENTS: methyl chloride, dichlorometha-
ne, 1.2-dichloroethane, carbon tetrachloride, trichloroethylene,
1.1.1-trichloroethane
2. Sparks and open flames are strictly prohibited.
Fluids can be highly
flammable and can cause fire. Do not expose to open flames, electrical
goods, cigarettes etc.
3. Securely ground spray gun using conductive air hose.
(Less than1M
Ω
)
Always ensure that the spray gun is earthed correctly.
PROTECTION OF HUMAN BODY
1. Use in a well-ventilated site, using a spray booth.
Poor ventilation can cause organic solvent poisoning and fire.
2. Always wear protective gear (safety glasses, mask, gloves) to avoid
inflammation of eyes and skin.
In case of any physical discomfort, immediately seek medical advice.
3. Wear earplugs if necessary.
Noise level can exceed 85 dB(A), depending on operating conditions and
painting site.
4. Pulling the trigger many times during operation, may cause carpal
tunnel syndrome
. Always rest, in case of tiredness.
IMPROPER USE
1. Never point gun towards people or animals.
2. Never exceed maximum working pressure or maximum operating
Temperature
3. Always release air and fluid pressure before cleaning, disassembling or
servicing.
Otherwise, remaining pressure can cause bodily injury due to
improper operation or scattering of cleaning liquid.
4. Tip of fluid needle set has a sharp point.
Do not touch the tip during maintenance to avoid accidents.
5. Never use this gun to spray foods or chemicals.
Otherwise, foreign sub-
stance, could cause corrosion of fluid passages which could adversely affect
health.
6. Never alter this spray gun,
to avoid insufficient performance and damage.
7. Do not trigger strongly more than needed,
to avoid failure and injury.
8. If something goes wrong, immediately stop operation and find the cause.
Do not use again, until you have solved the problem.
9. Do not enter working areas, where robots, reciprocators, etc. are used,
until they have been turned off.
Otherwise, they could cause injury.
3. HOW TO CONNECT
CAUTION
- Use clean air filtered through air dryer and air filter.
- When using this gun for the first time after purchase, spray cleaner to
clean fluid passages and remove rust preventive oil.
- Firmly fix hose or container to spray gun, to avoid disconnection of hose
or container, that can cause bodily injury.
1. Firmly connect an air hose to air hose joint (15) (AIR).
2. Firmly connect fluid hose to fluid hose joint (15) (FLUID).
3. Supply compressed air to the gun.
4. Supply release agent to the gun, test spray, adjust fluid output and pattern
width.
4. HOW TO OPERATE
_ Atomizing air pressure varies according to viscosity and release agent
property. Adjust air pressure within a range of 1.0 ~ 2.0 bar. (Use higher air
pressure to spray fine mist and lower air pressure to spray coarse mist).
_ When using the pressure feed tank or pump, set the pressure to 2.0 bar or
less. There are two methods to adjust fluid output:
(1) Adjust compressed air pressure to the pressure feed tank or pump.
(2) Open and close fluid adjustment knob of gun. (Hex. wrench 3 mm) Fluid
output becomes zero when fluid adjustment knob of gun is turned fully
clockwise. Fluid output gradually starts increasing when fluid adjustment
knob is turned counterclockwise from zero point and fluid output stops
increasing when fluid adjustment knob is turned 4 turns and more counter-
clockwise.
_ The pattern becomes round, when the pattern adj. set (14) is completely
closed. The pattern becomes oval, tourning the pattern adj. set (14) coun-
terclock-wise. When adjustment is set, tighten the Hex. nut M6.
_ Set the spray distance from the gun to the work piece, as near as possible
within the range of 50-150 mm.
This Anest IWATA spray guns kit complies
to ATEX regulations 94/9/EC, protection level:
II 2 G X Suitable for using Zones 1 and 2.
X marking: Any static electricity discharge from the spray gun is to be
diverted to the ground via the conductive air hose as stipulated.
ALWAYS observe WARNINGS and CAUTIONS in this
instruction manual.
Before use, adjustment or maintenance, it is important
to read this instruction manual very carefully. This ma-
nual must be stored in a safe place for any future reference.
